‘Heads-Up’ PlayStation Store Update (19th November 2009)

Great update, really at a loss for what to get. EyePet Lucky Dip, Dragaon Ages Wardens Keep along with LBP PSP and maybe AC Bloodlines perhaps? Need time to play all this stuff though!

On the Dragon Age front, I got the collectors edition today and none of the free dlc that comes with it is showing up, is that just due to store update not having been out?

Oh and Gravity Crash on Tuesday??? Ohhh yes please!!!

thank you mike fantastic job with metal gear solid

capcom in any way interested with resident evil 1 directors cut?

What time the UPDATE happened?

update is up … in a fashion.
Metal Gear Solid appears in main screen, along with Critter Crunch (if you keep refreshing) – nothing else appeared yet … guess it’s updating a bit slowly …

Excellent update this week Mr Kebby.

And may I thank you and all your colleagues for pushing for MGS1 to finally get released over here. First thing that I bought.

Don’t stop now though! Plenty more PS1 classics that need to arrive on our stores!

Oh cool Mercury Meltdown……..Not available in New Zealand, oh well never mind no biggie. Even better i’ll just get Metal Gear so……..Not Available In New Zealand……..WTF!!!!!

There a French hand in here somewhere, always messing with the Kiwis stuff.

MGS NOT AVAILABLE IN NZ, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Indeed, games that marked my childhood as the Final Fantasy saga, Resident Evil, Metal Gear, Silent Hill, Legend of Dragoon, Abe … It comes little by little.
Talking about Capcom, Devil may Cry was totally cancelled right?

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

you are keeping an mgs fanboy from re playing the epicness of a game that is metal gear solid 1.

ah well, at least i have critter crunch.

i hope it doesnt get forgotten and comes out in nz eventually

good overall update.

Heya Mike, awesome update! It seems like you’re safe for a week

Anywho i don’t suppose you’ve heard anything about the Disgaea 3 trophy patch have you? It’d be awesome to get it before Christmas so i can lose my life to that game all over again

Oh I forgot to ask about DEMON’S SOULS. That game has done great in the US. Sold over 150k first few weeks!

Is there any interest in publishing the game in Europe from other publishers? If not, is there any chance SCEE will publish it? Surely with almost a 90 metascore and 150k sales in US a publisher would be crazy not to pick it up.

So glad that we’ve FINALLY got confirmation of a release date for the Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 DLC! Considering the delay and inconvience we’ve suffered surely there should be some sort of discount on the pricing side of things, perhaps?

Fantastic Update Mike!
Got Critter Crunch, LBP PPS and MGS.
Thanks for the great support for ours PSP, Sony!

discounts?? I think it very unlikely we’ll wait …

I bet you don’t reply to me,
1)Ireland should get an RTE Player(seriously come on….Jeez it would make my PS3 better. my friend is watching Sky on his Xbox360 and My PS3 is empty.)
2)I don’t think Ireland has Video Store. Thanks?

It really does everything huh? LOL Reply if you can. -_-

Okay so i downloaded Assassins creed for my psp go from psn, just finished installing it, I go to start it up, I get the Assassins Creed symbol spinning in the bottom right for 2 seconds then it freezes and then my Psp switches off, any one else getting this problem? Ive cant play the game what so ever!

I know, more than 200 commenters have said it before me, but: GREAT UPDATE! This is how it should look like. MGS, LBP and Assasins Creed for PSP! Damn, my wallet is gonna empty fast…

Sad to see, that the VideoStore isn’t coming to Switzerland yet, but…hell, I wouldn’t have any money left to spend, so can wait a little bit more.

@297 just use the ps3’s browser to use rte’s player, nothing good on it anyway. and no ireland does not have the video store and if it did you’d only be complaining about the price of everything on it!! Bit of a rip off from what i hear.

See, this is how you do it. There’s a decent classic, two genuinely good psn games and lots of other goodies. It’s the psp prices tha t impress the most. Great price for Little Big Planet, and that Disgea price is far more sensible.

If Sony ensured the all old releases were £12 and new games were £22 they would be a lot of happy punters.

Hey Mike,

When can we expect Crisis Core for PSP or at least Dissidia?
I changed my old Fat for new Go! and didn’t know the library of games isn’t full. I own Crisis Core on an UMD drive, but I would love to see it on my brand new Go!

I assume Square Enix is making problems with distributing their own games in Europe, but it’s quite unfair from your side also – before the Go! release, Sony admitted you’re going to create a program to convert UMD discs to apply it for Go!. Now our only chance is to wait, but how long?

One thing: I wait and I wait, and there’s still no Williams Pinball Classics in the store, and as the flag next to my nickname clearly suggests I’m not in Australia or New Zeland… What gives?

Mana Khemia is a nice RPG, but load times in PSP are horrible! I’d like to know if the downloadable version has faster loading times.

I doubt you read this far down Mike, but thanks, that is awesome!

Thanks for putting the Warriors PSP on the store and cheap too. Even though I already have it for my Slim it’s just nice to see it available if I got a Go at some point. It’s my favorite PS2 game and I was glad to see it ported so well to a handheld.

Thank You SCEE Now I Don’t Have To Buy Metal Gear Solid Off eBay Which Is $120.00,And $15.95 On The PlayStation Store That’s Sweet
Thanks Again

Hopefully F1 2009 will be out around midnight, to match up with the U.K. release date. If not, I pray that we don’t have to wait until December 18th, which is the Japan release date for it. I too bought a PSN card solely for this game last week thinking that it was going to be out on Tuesday (since I am from U.S.) but still no news. : (

Any issues with LBP? I’ve tried to install it three times on my PSP Go (the highest % it’s gotten to is 44%) and every time it’s come up with an error.

Hey Mike so I have a question about the video store… just kidding rofl, the reply of I…. Don’t etc is priceless.

Nothing here but just to say please send thanks to anyone and EVERYONE that was involved in finally getting MGS to us all.

No MGS for New Zealand? I know thats just laziness from Konami. For sure. We have the easiest laws, licensing and ratings system out there. Our country is so easy going they allow all sorts of parallel importing and other things things like that. Our censors let anything through and it’s just the easiest country to arrange things with.

Konami have just made an arbitrary decision that we are too small a market to bother with. Is Sony going to let all third parties do that to small countries eventually?

NBA 2K10 isn’t available in the Dutch store.

Congratulations on getting up a very awesome update! I’ll have to download lots of stuff when I get some free time from work in two or three days.

I have a suggestion to make, however. It would be very much appreciated, not only by me, but many others I’m sure, if you could show the size each piece of content takes up. Not only on this blog update, but on the PSN store itself as well, as the US one does. It’s very useful, please consider it, thank you.

Well done with getting MGS1 on psn store mike and team. Any news on the resi or more importantly the Oddworld games. This would make my PSP almost as hot as the PS3 for me. 2010 is the year I feel the PS3 is gonna put microsoft back into the Ice Age. LOL

Fantastic update! My jaw dropped when I read that we’ve got Metal Gear Solid this week. Time to pay Snake a visit and start clearing out Shadow Moses.

Thanks guys.

Hey Mike, just wondering will there be a demo of LBP PSP?
It’s not that I want to try before I buy (cos I know it’ll be GREAT) it’s just I have no money

u.s got resident evil 2 and adhoc party for psp today . lol com mike push for resi evil 1 ,2 and 3 to end abt 80 percnt of complaining abt ps1 classics . U CAN DO IT LOL

“Metal Gear Solid (£7.99/€9.99) Rating: PEGI 18+
Availability: Not available in New Zealand”

Well I guess I shouldn’t hold my breath for any other good updates huh.
Thank god Disney’s Winnie the Poo made it to our shores as that game is off the chain!!!

Mike will SOUL REAVER come also over PAL territories..?

good to FINALLY see the mgs1 on the EU psn..i’ll also be getting that assasssins creed lbp outfit eventhough i don’t play the game that much anymore..i also got lbp on psp today (the creators edition) and my exclusive content code doesn’t work again, i’ve had it several times, buying a limited edition for exclusive content and ending up with codes that don’t work..what’s the deal with that? oh well atleast we finally got mgs1 on psp, still gotta play it so can’t give comments on that one..

ohyea AC2 and the psp edition Bloodlines rock too..

now get Final fantasy 8 on the european servers and it’s all good..

Well thats just bloody great. Hear I was hoping to get MGS after class today but what do I find out? “Not available in New Zealand”. Way to go Konami. Nice move in screwing over your Kiwi MGS fanbase.
I am really F***ED off at the moment. Screw you Konami.

dude what happend to the tv icon and bbc i player on the new update?

Metal Gear Solid! THANKS!!

Metal. Gear. Solid.

Hooray! And thanks you beauties. Everything’s going to be aaaaaaalllllright.

Good to see MGS, its about time we got more good PS1 games instead of the mostly preschool stuff its been getting recently.

I’ve got a question though, where is Suikoden?

The US Store got it ages ago and that game is like gold dust to try to get hold of.

Stoo.

Hey Mike sorry to be a downer again but there is no Little Big Planet on the PSN store here in New Zealand. Did it as well not get submitted for release here like MGS.

Any chance you could briefly describe Licensing Issues and how they affect release to locales.

Thanks for the input.

URGENT: Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines is NOT WORKING!

I downloaded Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines from the PSN store for my PSP Go.

When the game launches, you see the “loading” symbol turning around and instantly the system freezes and turns off… this happens EVERY TIME!!!

Just to be sure I deleted the game and downloaded it again and the same thing happened, so I tried downloading it to a PSP 3000 and the same crashed ocurred…

What is going on? I paid 30 euros for a game I cannot even start!!! I have about 15 downloaded games and have never had a problem!

UPDATE: Video of Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines crashing on 2 PSPs

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5P3AfnxiWM

I want Assassin’s creed to work. Damn, waited a long time for this game, no I got it, but it isn’t working.
What’s going on sony?

how ironic i was just talking about how MGS needs to go back to its original roots.
wow thats freaky, im scared!
just 1 question.
if i buy resident evil 2 off the US PSN will it work on my Australian PSP?
since if i wait for it to come on the AU PSN well, my kids will have great grand kids by the time that happens.
thanks.

Woot! Finally, a decent PSOne game! ^^ Now just get Resident Evil 1, 2 and 2, Silent Hill and Final Fantasy VIII and IX.

Also we got Disgaea! Yay!

And Mike, I know you don’t answer about the Video Store but do you know how often it will be updated? You know, like this store is updated every Thursday? Thanks ^_^
